Hi everyone. First post here. I downloaded the mydmx software after it was suggested to me. I originally bought a hardware DMX controller about a year ago and gave up on any programming after about 4 hours into it.
First off, I love the software because it makes me look like a pro despite my limited DMX knowledge. I was all set to buy the dongle until I learnt that there will be a soon to be released software/hardware update. So, I guess, I'll wait a week or so. I do have a few questions that I hope someone could help me answer.
1) My Blizzard RGB pucks do not show up in the 3D visualizer. I can choose them from the ScanLibrary but they aren't visible in the visualizer. My scanners however (Martin MX4s) do show up and do respond to DMX commands. I suppose everything would work just fine when I get the dongle and I connect it all physically but it is so much easier to make a show with just the software first. Anyone know what to do?
2. I love the fx section for my scanners but if I try to make a scene on my own without the use of the fx section, how do I ensure that the scanner beam movements are nice and smooth rather than just jumping from one static point to the next?
Thanks and sorry for the noobish questions. This is my first real serious DMX experimentation
